Took delivery of my 2024 Model 3 LR AWD, but first here are some pics:

Beautiful. Shiny too, even the tires.

Looks great! Will be interesting to hear how it compares to the Y and the Polestar

AMIRZA786 Dec 15, 2024 01:51 PM

Here are the specs:

Built in Fremont in July 2024
Solid Black Paint option
19" Nova Wheels option
Long Range, All-Wheel drive
3 months included FSD
3 months includes Super Charging

Just a little about this car. Had 1054 miles on it. Fully inspected it before I excepted delivery, its brand new, and has the new car smell. It's more than just an upgrade from my 2023 Y. It's super quiet, the seats are an upgrade from the already comfortable seats in my Y. They have really upped it when it comes to sound and road dampening. At 80 MPH on bad roads it just shrugged off all the bumps, and it's super quiet, everything from wind noise to road noise. The new motors are way quieter and super responsive. Acceleration felt on par or better than my Polestars. And it's fast....really fast.

As far as stock removal, I adjusted withing 10 minutes. By the time I got home, I was pretty much adjusted. I still think they should not have removed the stalks, as I can see my wife being scared to drive it, but she would also adjust to it.

I challenge anyone to test drive one and say it's not one of the best cars for the money they have driven. Overall, it's a huge step above my Y

It's a huge step above the current Y. It's now luxury car level as far as the way it drives, quietness and smoothness. It's quieter and smoother than the Polestar was, and I'm betting it performs just as well. It's way, way more efficient averaging 128 MPGe

Well that’s absolutely fantastic! Many congrats!

Looking forward to hearing more! Enjoy!

Congrats! So you buy a car every 8-10 months? :D

Remember, I've leased my last three cars. This is it for the next five to 10 years. No more leasing after the Ioniq 5

Not sure who does the passenger front door installs, but they need to be reassigned to admin paperwork or something. I've rarely seen the ambient lighting bar match up exactly from the dash to the door. Doesn't seem to be an issue on the driver's side. Just the passenger's side. The light bar on my son's is just slightly lower on the door compared to the dash. Yours seems to be slightly higher.

No wonder he isn't concerned about battery replacement. :)

It's done by robots. I'll see what it looks like tonight

I'm keeping both Tesla's at least 10 years. Y is paid off, 3 will be in three years. I have no plans to lease another car after the Ioniq

AMIRZA786 Dec 15, 2024 05:53 PM

The interior lighting looks really cool, you can change the colors

As Bob mentioned, there is a slight misalignment on the passenger side between the dash and the door, but frankly I wouldn't have even noticed it had it not been pointed out
